The Horizon LE1

Property Description

Situated on the 14th floor of the highly sought-after Horizon development, this refurbished one-bedroom apartment offers breathtaking panoramic views over Leicester’s skyline and the added benefit of an external balcony. Designed for contemporary city living, the apartment features a bright and spacious kitchen/lounge with balcony access, a well-proportioned double bedroom, and a bathroom with both bath and shower.

The Horizon benefits from a communal main entrance at 2 Navigation Street, concierge service in the foyer, access to two lifts and emergency stairways, secure postal boxes, and a basement car park (registration required with the management company). The building has recently been renovated in compliance with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 and holds certification. Offered with no upward chain, the property presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals, or investors, with an estimated rental income of approximately £9,000 per annum — equating to around a 10.5% return on investment.
